Rigoletto

March 3, 7, 9 (7:30 p.m.) and 11 (2:00 p.m.)

Music by Giuseppe Verdi

POSSIBLY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL. DEFINITELY THE MOST TRAGIC.
Your tissues will need tissues when court jester Rigoletto tries to protect his daughter from the powerful Duke who’s dead-set on defiling her. Verdi’s gritty story of revenge will surprise you with radiant melodies and some of the most recognizable arias in all of opera.

The Barber of Seville

April 28, May 2, 4 (7:30 p.m.) and 6 (2:00 p.m.)

Music by Gioachino Rossini

ONE OF THE FUNNIEST COMEDIES OF ALL TIME IS AN OPERA.
Check your powdered wigs at the door and join us in Seville for a Barber of a different color. This vibrant production draws inspiration from the magical realism of filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar. We promise, you have never seen Barber like this!
